Woman sues LAPD after wrongful arrest, 2-week jail stint | NewsNation Prime
A woman who said she spent nearly two weeks in jail after being mistakenly identified and arrested last year announced a lawsuit against the city of Los Angeles, the LAPD and L.A. Airport Police Tuesday morning.
Bethany Farber said she was at LAX last April, getting ready to travel to Mexico to see her brother and goddaughter, when she was detained, “aggressively interrogated about her identity” and taken into custody by the TSA due to an arrest warrant for a Bethany Farber in Texas.

They kept her for 3 more days because they were looking for a reason to make it a valid arrest (searching her criminal record for unpaid parking tickets, warrants, etc) so they could save face.
How does this happen in 2022, in the USA? She remained in jail for TWO WEEKS?! And it wasn't even her?! WTF is wrong with our system? Nobody is held accountable. Why?

Qualified immunity!
Wow! That is heartbreaking!! Why wouldn’t they do their jobs… I hope she gets a lot of money.
The LAPD should be held accountable on causing the stress-inducing event of the indirect death of her grandmother.
I hope she gets millions!!! All they needed was a picture! Should not even of happened!!!
Basic job duties? Wtf is that anymore. Shame on all of them. I hope she gets justice.

@@jarrettath9636 so your supporting police just not even doing their jobs yet getting payed. Na wrongful imprisonment happens from innocent ppl being found guilty, this...doesn't happen much. Social security wasn't even checked kid. Basic protocols were blantonly not done. It be one thing if an actual mistake happened but this wasn't a mistake...it was just not even doing the job. When someone says you have the wrong person and they haven't even confirmed it was her is a huge problem. Ppl don't deserve to lose their freedoms because of pos police
Two weeks for absolutely nothing? Sue the shit out of 'em. They have way too much power and need to be more careful when arresting people

Such arrogance the LAPD are nothing more than a power hungry corrupt abuse negligence and illogical egotistical stupid moronic police force. whoever founded LAPD are complete idiots to the extreme and in history.
The LAPD officers and the airport security should be fired and they should be jailed and barred from holding a position in law enforcement
We been saying this all over the US, hope cops will get more punishment for the errors they make. I have had similar situations in my state.
I hope she gets every penny. This is outrageous.
This is the result of qualified immunity and incompetence. Qualified immunity breeds criminal activity.
So have they found the other Bethanny? I think it is extremely sad that her granny died due to the stress.
Sue the Bastards!!
How horrible and incompetent!
To the cops in this video: If you had just done an ID check of the woman you misidentified as the one with the warrant, you would've seen that the one you falsely arrested and kept in jail was NOT the one with the warrant. In my eyes, you all decided to discriminate against an innocent woman, refused to free her for three more days, and kept her from seeing her now-deceaced grandmother who obviously died because you caused the innocent woman's grandmother a lot of stress. So now the innocent woman's grandmother's death is on your hands.
The police forgot about the William West story lmao, she really should sue them hard and fire those who handled her
Wow. This is very alarming. I hope she wins this lawsuit - i don’t know what they could possibly argue here. There wasn’t just one officer or official involved here
Those involved should be held accountable and at the very least be fired. Their actions & incompetency have had irreversible actions. Make them go to jail.
Damn so the state killed her grandmother 😢😢. And people wonder why we are distrustful of government...
And she will have PTSD KY also has been doing those things. And 3 days is a lifetime when you are in jail
TSA and LAPD continue to dork up.
If the penalty for 'wrongful imprisonment due to probable negligence' were a damages rate of 2 million dollars per day to the victim, there would be fewer and fewer.
Any update on the litigation?
She should’ve also sued lax and tsa
So she should, she deserves a lot of compensation.
This qualified immunity garbage needs to be brought to an end . We need accountability !!!!
Any updates on this?

They probably kept her in there for being so pretty! Y’all know cops are haters! Hope she gets all their money.
I hope she gets millions 💰💵🍀I wish her the best of luck in her lawsuit and may God bless and keep her. And may Karma visit much sorrow and woe unto the scumbag oath breakers.
Is there any update to this story because there's zip from any other news outlet since the intent to sue was made.
I think they should have to pay being sure before putting anyone though this.
I hope she wins millions
Why am i not surprised its LAPD?
Sue the living crap out of these people
Throw those who made the mistakes in jail for the same amount of time, treat them the same as all the other inmates, make the pay the whatever the lawsuit gets settled for.
All scumbags involved need to be fired.
IF were was me, i would also sue the TSA
She's gorgeous, how could they mistake the two?

Gross incompetence.
Bet the one who did the full cavity search was thinkin yep they got the right Bethany alright.
Why the hell did it take the cops 2 freakin' weeks to compare the fingerprints/mugshot on file to the person standing in front of them??? This should have been resolved within minutes, not weeks!!!
20 million damage
I hope the settlement was or is HUGE for LAPD incompetence.
She is smoking hot. No way she doesn’t win a ton of money off this
You arrest someone THIS beautiful, you better hope she is really guilty. Anyone on the jury will want to destroy you.
Im not at all shocked by the TSA in this situation to be honest.

Dreaming to be a cop so you can be lazy and have an easy job but a quick check on ID the date of birth is very easy too. I am pro cops but this one I just can’t.
Whats her instagram? Damn she’s fine!! I see why they kept her!!! Just to looking at that beauty
Put a lien on their surety bonds
An absolute outrage, and completely unnecessary. No excuse for the incompetence of the LAPD. Disgusting.
They are definitely abt to shell out a crap ton of money
Nice people lives in Agoura hills
😅🤣😂 it happens to most people 😅🤣😂 so now you know what it feels like.
Cops pick and choose who they are going to protect and serve, mostly their friends, family and themselves.
How can these police officers live with themselves? How would they like it if it happened to them?
She is smoking hot. Hope she gets paid.
Oops. Sort of reminds me of Young Guns when all the good townspeople exclaim “oops” outside a brothel.
When you see this crap, think Christopher Dorner and how his heroism dealt with some pigs!

Well, at least she has enough money for lipposuction 👄
Man, I'd have let her go if I was a cop. No matter what she did or didn't do.
